Hi Rhys and welcome to WB

I think the closest meet to you is no Tuesday at the Prince of Wales on Tuesdays - very freindly bunch.

Next closest is probably the Oliver Cromwell (Roundway riders - more friendly folks) though I think one is trying to get started at Lynham too

Whoa, lots of greets, thanks!

Nice one JayJay- I shall have to check out the Prince of Wales next week...I did notice the sign for bike nights but keep forgetting to go down.

What kind of Enduro do you ride, and where abouts, Smellygerm? I still have my crosser wheels and an intention of swapping between them every now and then :)

Nice to see! What do you guys ride and what kind of routes? My bike is currently a bit grubby from a Sunday afternoon on the backroads and ridgeway :)

Rhys, the rideouts seem to be about 100 to 150 miles normally, some over 200...
there are arranged formal rideouts and there are privately run ones...
id suggest that you plan a route round some twisties, advertise and see who comes to play :-)

glad to see you still have your "Proper" wheels also, as youll no doubt be getting an invite from us to come offroading too at some point... and an invite to the wheelie lessons too.... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

I see! 100-200 miles would be, ooh, about 3 or 4 fuel stops worth on my bike! (damn Yamaha for putting a smaller tank on it)
A twisty route might well be a way forward. I still need to get used to the roads round this way for SM, then I may well see what the interest is.

Feel free to shout whenever there's an offroad session; will need some warning so I can swap the wheels and fender over though, oh and they're on _proper_ knobblies so I can't go too far on the road ;)

Hi Rhys and welcome to WBs.

Some of us have had problems with our Yam WR off roaders recently (like big offs amd injuries !!!).
All healing up now, in time to get out on the off road wet stuff this winter.!!
